Good, and, frankly, somewhat surprising news for Denver tokers. The city council last night reversed itself and undid the ban on marijuana smoking in public view even if on one’s own property. There will be one more vote on the ordinance next week.
According to KUSA TV, Councilwoman Susan Shepherd offered up an amendment to undo the ban, which had passed last week on a 7-5 vote. The vote last night to reverse was 7-6.
Shepherd suggested that rather than calling the police, neighbors try being neighborly. That would mean talking to your neighbor if his marijuana smoke bothers you, and dealing with your neighbor’s concerns if your marijuana smoke bothers him.
Sounds reasonable.
This is such a bullshit law. Especially for being on your own property. What about your neighbor who is smoking cigs/cigars/pipes?
Sounds like a nice way to try your neighbor’s brand,
now ya just hafta catch him lighting up

They’re going to demonize it until the very end like a child that’s been proven wrong. That’s the bottom line. Of course, I seem to recall traveling to one place where it was illegal to smoke cigs, etc. – in your own house! :wacked:
